Owner-requested handover for a successor session: worktree/branch/HEAD,
tonight''s ledger (falls + rain + torch fixes user-verified; slices 4+5
reverted; the seven-report corpus), the OPEN through-wall remote-player
defect with both attempted fixes and the post-fix [dyn-route] evidence
(the DynamicLast root-flood gate works; the remaining draw path is the
legacy look-in machinery), the leading punch-depth hypothesis marked
unverified, the retail-shaped fix direction, the remaining queue, all
probe families, and the binding lessons.

The [dyn-route] trace pinned the through-wall remote player (visible
from 0xF4180101 AND outdoors while parented at 0xF4180112 - a cell
with no retail sightline chain from either): the legacy visibility
builder invents cross-building cell views at the cathedral (REAL
3-5-plane cones for 0x112, not the zero-plane trapdoor), the viewcone
admits his sphere, and he rides the last dynamics pass - post-clear on
interior roots (walls'' depth wiped) and post-world outdoors.
The stage-set split (synthesis plan step 4): an interior-parented
dynamic may ride DynamicLast ONLY when its parent cell is in THE
WALK''S OWN ROOT FLOOD (oracle-trace-conformant; retail draws look-in
occupants inside the landscape stage through the composed portal
chain, and unreachable cells'' occupants not at all). The frame
product''s build input gains RootFloodCells (the driver''s
InteriorFloodCells as a per-frame set); non-walk/diagnostic frames and
the comparison wrapper keep the legacy drawableCells meaning. The
[dyn-route] probe logs the new rootflood-excluded state.

The owner''s through-wall remote-player report (standing in 0xF4180101,
a player parented at 0xF4180112 - the south hall, geometrically
unseeable through the cathedral - renders through opaque walls; from
0xF4180104 he is correctly hidden). The DynamicLast admission chain
has three gates (indoor / old-apparatus look-in exclusion /
SphereVisibleInCell against old-assembly cell planes), and gate 3
carries a known trapdoor: a zero-plane scissor-fallback slice is
PASS-ALL. This trace logs, per entity ON CHANGE: parent cell, look-in
exclusion hits, the viewcone verdict, and the cell''s lifted-plane
shape, so one 0104<->0101 crossing with the remote player in place
pins the admitting gate. Rain gate 75eab42f is owner-PASSED.

The owner''s seam report (rain in the 0xF4180104/0xF4180101 crossing
strip where retail has none) led straight to retail''s actual rain
confinement, which is neither depth nor view clipping:
GameSky::Draw @0x00506ff0 gates its WEATHER pass (arg2==1) on
SmartBox::is_player_outside @0x00451e80 - Ghidra-arbitrated (BN''s
body was flag-idiom mush): (player objcell_id & 0xFFFF) < 0x100. The
sky pass always draws; rain draws ONLY while the PLAYER is in an
outdoor cell. One boolean - rain on the ledges, none the instant the
player crosses into an interior cell. Retail also runs the sky/weather
draw at DEPTHTEST_ALWAYS write-off (pc 0x00507063), confirming our
depth-disabled weather port; the missing piece was only this gate,
now applied at the executor''s weather site from the frame''s
PlayerCellId.

Ports the user-verified #132 invariant (e102fb36 on the old pipeline)
walk-natively, on the owner''s direction: retail''s falls containment
is POSITIONAL - an outdoor emitter''s polys join the ONE alpha list
during its owner cell''s DrawObjCell in the far-to-near landscape walk
(DrawSortCell @0x005a17c0), so every nearer building''s pre-punch
barrier (DrawBuilding @0x0059f2a0''s FlushAlphaList @0x0059f30b)
drains the already-queued FARTHER content against still-true depth
BEFORE its punch stamps far-Z into the aperture. The walk path had
kept the per-building AlphaBarrier events but batched ALL landscape
static-owner submission into one lump at the pre-clear closure - after
every punch had run: the barriers fired over an empty queue and the
falls drained against punched-far aperture pixels (phase=pre in every
probe line, which is why six rounds of phase-staging repairs could
never see it - the phase was right, the position within the phase was
wrong).
New WalkFrameEventKind.StaticParticles: each landscape cell''s and
each building shell''s emitter owners now submit AT THAT TURN during
Replay (marked so the owner''s meshes flush first - retail''s
per-object order); the batched SubmitWalkLandscapeStaticParticles and
its closure/post-replay call sites are deleted for both root kinds.
Two driver sequence pins adjudicated to the new turn order.

real falls owner (the outdoor landblock emitters 0xCF418000-13 the six
fix rounds never traced) with route + phase; [falls-adm] admission
verdicts for F418 emitters at the retail ShouldDrawParticles port
(owner, cell, distance, in-set, eligibility); the continuous
[walk-root] line now separating the TRUE root flood
(InteriorFloodCells) from the visited union (root + look-ins - the
conflation the review corpus indicted) and printing the walk''s own
exit-view count; [walk-cam] replayable camera dumps; and the restored
[walk-portal] per-portal side/clip decisions. All under the existing
ACDREAM_PROBE_WALK_ROOT flag; the depth-checkpoint readback is

Files the independent review corpus (fable/opus/external + audit,
DAT-format, F418 DAT-geometry, retail decomp reconstruction) and the
synthesis that adjudicates their disagreements: retail roots INTERIOR
at the posed terrace defect pose with a ONE-CELL flood and ov=1 (the
free captures rooted outdoor - both were real); the falls are outdoor
landblock emitters 0xCF418000-13; the "thin seam bands" claim is
DAT-refuted (full-size exits; the seam is a coincident double
exit-to-outside plane at y=48); clear+seals live inside retail''s ov>0
block with a one-frame seal latch. Carries the instrument-first plan
(falls-owner trace, depth checkpoints, pose conformance) and the
decomp-pinned repair sequence toward FW4''s single-owner goal.
Also sweeps in the probe scaffolding slice 5''s path-limited add had
missed (RenderingDiagnostics field + the launch-options row wording).

Reverts 0d6cd5c0 (slice 5) and f3a03efc (slice 4). All three
independent cathedral reviews (fable, opus, external) plus the DAT
geometry ground truth condemned both:
- Slice 5 misidentified its targets: owners 0x4F418012-15 are cell
0xF4180106''s TORCHES + a prop + a plant (InteriorEntityIdAllocator
namespace), not the falls - the real waterfall emitters are outdoor
landblock objects in the 0xC namespace (0xCF418000-13). Moving torch
flames pre-clear is the owner-reported in-cathedral particle
regression.
- Slice 4''s straddle rule is invented (retail stages by actual
shadow-cell membership), and its "emit once" contradicts retail''s
deliberate mid-frame m_nFrameStamp re-arm @0x005a4886 (a part
overlapping both scopes legitimately draws twice).

Five ordering repairs later the cathedral falls still bled, and the
final probe round proved why no ordering fix could ever land it: the
falls now submit pre-clear with depth test LESS - and STILL pass,
because the depth they test against is EMPTY. DrawWalkTerrainSlice
scissored + hardware-clipped the terrain to the walk''s exit-view
polygons, and at the #456 cathedral seam those authored portal polys
are thin BANDS far narrower than the real opening: most of the vista
never received terrain color or depth that frame (the visible scene
there was stale color), so unclipped alpha painted straight across.
Retail''s rule, per the PV campaign''s proven model and LScape::draw:
landscape content is view-CULLED, never view-CLIPPED - terrain blocks
draw whole, once per landscape turn (the views feed only CheckBlocks''
block visibility), and aperture exactness comes from the depth clear +
exit seals + interior repaint that follow in the walk''s own order.
This slice ports that: the driver fans exactly ONE terrain turn
(correcting slice 1''s per-view fan), and an interior root''s terrain
and sky draw unclipped/unscissored; the outdoor root keeps its single
full-screen slice (equivalent by construction). The walk''s views
still own the punch fans and dynamics apertures.
Hermetic 6,762/0.

The cathedral falls'' true identity, pinned by the emitter/owner dumps
and the owner''s retail-vs-ACE oracle (retail renders them perfectly):
they are EnvCell STAB-LIST statics (interior-cell dat objects, ids
minted by InteriorEntityIdAllocator) whose geometry hangs out over the
lake. Our cell-statics route submitted every interior flood cell''s
static particle owners POST-clear ("walls own depth") - true for
content that stays inside, but a straddler''s outside half meets
seal/cleared depth and splats across the vista.
Retail''s mechanism is the outdoor shadow-cell draw: an object
overlapping outdoor landcells draws during LScape::draw (DrawBlock
pc:430056-430064, once per overlapped shadow cell), so its particles
submit in the landscape scope and drain at the pre-clear boundary
flush over true terrain depth; the cell''s own turn skips them
(drawn-once). This slice ports that rule for particles: after Collect,
the interior flood cells'' static records are classified by the shared
exit-plane straddle test (extracted as SphereStraddlesExitPlane from
the #118 dynamic split); straddlers'' owners submit in the pre-clear
closure and the post-replay cell-owners union subtracts them, so every
owner emits exactly once. Also adds the [walk-emit] probe dump that
falsified the unattached-route theory.
Hermetic 6,762/0.

The cathedral falls survived slices 2 and 3; the [walk-dyn] dump then
pinned the real gate: the falls emitters are interior-parented
exit-plane STRADDLERS that pass BOTH the outside-stage predicate and
the viewcone (outside=1 cone=1) - they were in the pre-clear union all
along, and the deliberate ExceptRoute(DynamicLast) stripped them so
they emitted in the post-clear last pass instead ("straddlers emit
HERE"). That placement protects an indoor flame from interior repaint,
but a straddling emitter whose particles hang OUTSIDE the exit portal
has no depth left to occlude them after the clear - they splat across
terrain and water.
Retail submits an emitter''s polys at its object''s FIRST draw - the
landscape stage for anything overlapping outdoor shadow cells - and
drains them at the pre-clear boundary flush over true landscape depth.
Under an interior root the late-union now keeps the outside-stage
owners (straddlers included), records them, and BOTH last-pass arms
subtract the recorded set so every owner emits exactly once. Outdoor
roots keep the old except-at-union placement: both stages drain at the
same final flush there, so the last-pass emission is already correct
and a pre-emission would double-composite.

The cathedral falls persisted through the slice-2 seal fix; the probe
already held the tell: the same two emitter entities (f4243/f4285) draw
phase=pre on good frames and phase=post on bad ones. They are
interior-parented, so DynamicDrawsInOutsideStage takes the indoor arm,
whose first gate is flood membership - and that still read the OLD
apparatus flood, which drops cells at the #456 seam band. On those
frames the falls fell to the post-clear last pass and splatted across
the cleared depth (terrain and water alike).
Both predicate call sites (the frame product's BuildOutsideDynamicRoutes
via BuildAndBorrow's input, and the renderer's own outside-stage
classification) now receive the walk's VisitedCells on walk frames -
root flood plus look-in floods, all of whose objects retail draws inside
LScape::draw, pre-clear. drawableCells keeps its other roles. Also adds
the probe-gated [walk-dyn] per-entity classification dump (parent cell,
outside/cone verdicts) so a surviving repro pins the failing gate
directly.

The cathedral falls shine-through (owner report at the #456 terrace
seam, toggling with the camera''s side of the seam): the probe''s new
phase tags pinned the falls emitters to the cell-owners route
submitting POST-depth-clear on interior roots - retail''s own timing,
safe only because seals own the aperture depth by the end-of-frame
alpha drain. Our seal SET still came from the old apparatus''s flood,
which misses exit portals at the #456 seam band (its never-drawn panel
family), so the drain z-passed across the unsealed opening.
DrawWalkExitPortalMasks now stamps the walk''s own ordered interior
flood (WalkFrameDriver.InteriorFloodCells, captured at
OnInteriorFloodDrawTurn - retail PView::DrawCells pc:432785-432786),
keeping the old assembly''s per-cell slice clips where present and
sealing unclipped where the old apparatus had no entry (benign: the
exact dat aperture polygon, z-tested). The legacy path keeps the old
seal draw. Also: ACDREAM_PROBE_WALK_ROOT gains [walk-part]/[walk-alpha]
phase-tagged submission/drain lines (the apparatus that pinned this).

The FW3 visual gate's stairwell/grass transition flash (grass briefly
covering floor openings at doorway crossings - the #119 family) was the
FW3 dual path leaking: the walk decided WHETHER terrain draws while the
old PortalVisibilityBuilder assembly decided WHERE (slice planes, count,
scissor), and punch fans indexed the old slice array with walk view
indices. The new ACDREAM_PROBE_WALK_ROOT apparatus pinned the boundary
frames: fat/degenerate old-apparatus exit views splash terrain over
interior pixels, the interior depth-clear preserves color, and cells
absent from the walk's flood never repaint. Retail has ONE visibility
structure and cannot produce this.
ClipFrameAssembler.ReassembleOutsideViewFromWalk now materializes the
walk's own outside_view (pixel screen points -> standard NDC -> the
existing ClipPlaneSet machinery) into the assembly's outside-view block
after Collect, ahead of the single PrepareClipFrame publication (moved
below the walk block). The Landscape event carries the walk's active
view count on the record's existing OutsideViewCount field (trace
mapping compares kind only - zero oracle-fixture churn) and the driver
fans exactly that many terrain slices; activeTerrainSliceCount is
deleted end to end. Outdoor roots keep the assembler's single
full-screen slice, asserted ==1.

The total-fallback assertion pinned ViewerCellId == 0 - the pre-fix
adaptation. Retail set_viewer copies the whole player Position,

Owner report: floor openings (stairs down) briefly covered by outside
terrain at camera in/out crossings - the historic #119 family
transition arm. Root cause: at a doorway graze the camera collision
sweep can transiently fail; retail total-failure fallback
set_viewer(&player->m_position, 1) (update_viewer @0x00453fad, and the
cell==0 bail @0x00453d1d) copies the WHOLE player Position - objcell_id
included - so retail roots those frames on the player interior cell.
Our fallback left ViewerCellId = 0, which the walk reads as an OUTDOOR
root while the eye is inside: full-screen terrain with the look-in
gates correctly refusing from the interior side - grass over the
stairwell for exactly the failing frames. The fallback now inherits
the pivot/player cell, matching retail byte-for-byte.

Second owner report at the same gate: candle-flame particles still
invisible looking out. Flame emitters attach to STATIC owners (lamp
and candle statics), and the walk path submitted the landscape-stage
static-owner particle union AFTER the driver replay - post-clear, so
the pre-clear drain never carried them and a later flush z-failed
them at the sealed aperture. For an interior root the submission now
runs at the walk pre-clear boundary (retail inserts each emitter
during its cell landscape walk turn, before the clear+seals);
outdoor roots keep the post-replay frame-end placement (#132).
Interior cells own emitters stay in the final world scope where the

Owner gate report (Holtburg, looking out from a house): no doors on
buildings, no candle particles, the character vanishing for a frame
when crossing out. One family: the cutover moved the interior depth
clear + exit seals into the walk turn, but the dynamics phase
(outside dynamics, look-in dynamics, outdoor particles, weather)
still ran AFTER the whole walk - everything beyond the door plane
z-failed against the seals stamp, the exact #118 house-exit
clip+vanish class the old code documented.
Retail draws the outside world's objects INSIDE LScape::draw,
strictly before the clear+seals. The driver's clearInteriorDepth
closure now invokes the dynamics phase at that pre-clear boundary for
interior roots (_walkPreClearDynamics, assigned around the Replay,
cleared in finally); outdoor roots keep the post-driver order (no
clear exists there). Packed route consumption order is unchanged

The dense-Arwic re-measure crashed with VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST: between
ordered ranges the walk leaf draws (terrain, shells, sky, punch fans)

against foreign buffers - out-of-bounds instance reads and a GPU
fault. Sections now re-bind on every DrawOrderedRange call, exactly

The FW3.4 dense-Arwic pair triggered the +/-20% stop rule (+33.5% CPU
p50, 14x frame allocation). This slice removes the three measured
costs without changing GPU command order (the referee suites assert
identical recorded call sequences):
- WalkFrameDriver: Collect (ONE walk per frame - no GPU work; leaf
calls and flush points become a recorded event list; the driver
absorbed the renderer collection pass and exposes the visited sets)
+ Replay (prepare the whole stream once, then replay events,
interleaving DrawOrderedRange with leaf calls in the exact recorded
order). RunFrame = Collect+Replay for existing callers.
- WbDrawDispatcher: SubmitOrderedStream split into PrepareOrderedStream
(all sections + commands + merge runs uploaded once per frame) and
DrawOrderedRange (bind-once latch; per-run pipeline + DrawIdOffset +
DrawIndirectRangeRhi). Load-bearing correctness catch from the
implementation round: merge runs take FORCED BREAKS at the recorded
event marks - whole-stream merging must not fuse two segments that
retail separates with a leaf GPU call (shell, punch); the straddle
assert stays as a dead-code safety net.
- WalkProductionWorldData: WalkFrameStaticRecords carries an
ArraySegment into a per-frame grow-only arena; the per-cell
fresh-array copies (the 1.9 MB/frame alloc p50) are gone - zero

The owner watched the first passing lifecycle run and reported most
outdoor scenery not rendering (terrain/buildings/interiors fine, no
seams). Root cause: retained-scene record positions are RENDER-ORIGIN-
RELATIVE (each landblock carries (lbX - CenterX)*192 offsets), but the
walk world data bucketed outdoor statics by treating them as absolute -
garbage landblock bytes, so the walk's landscape-cell turns read empty
buckets and trees/rocks/fences never drew. LandscapeCellId now adds the
frame's RenderCenterLbX/Y back to the relative block index, producing
the TRUE cell ids the walk's OnLandscapeCellTurn emits. Buildings and
cell statics were unaffected (id-keyed, not position-bucketed).
The same run confirmed the campaign thesis live: NO SEAMS at the

The retail frame walk now drives every production static draw. In
RetailPViewRenderer.DrawInside, when the concrete executor + the
packed product + the FW3.1 walk registries are all wired (all
production compositions - anything less throws):
- A pre-walk events-only collection pass (the shadow sink generalized
to WalkVisitedSetCollector) gathers the frame's visited cells,
buildings, and landscape-cell turns; the visited cells union into
prepareCells so EnvCellRenderer prepares every shell the driver
draws.
- DrawWalkDrivenStatics runs the WalkFrameDriver over the production
world data (WalkProductionWorldData over RenderSceneQuery + the
building registry): sky, terrain slices, outdoor statics at their
landscape-cell turns, buildings (alpha barrier -> punch/look-in
passes -> shell) in retail order, interior clear+seals as leaf
closures (the old tail block's drain reasoning moves with them),
flood cells shell-then-contents. Landscape/cell-stage particle
owners re-source from the walk's visited sets - retail gates
particles per cell turn (ShouldDrawParticles @0x0050FE60), which
this is; the old sphere filter was the approximation.
- DrawLandscapeDynamicsPhase + DrawBuildingLookInDynamics carry the
dynamics-only remainder (LookInObject now dynamic-classified,
late outside-dynamics + weather, particle unions); DrawDynamicsLast
and the outdoor flush are unchanged.
- The product builder stops emitting LandscapeOutdoorStatic /
LandscapeBuildingShell / CellStatic (methods deleted, dead index
tracking removed); LookInObject loads cells with
includeStatics: false.
The old static path survives ONLY behind !walkActive for the
standalone/diagnostic executor-fake path that keeps 15 retail-ordering
regression tests exercising the barrier/punch/seal machinery; no
production composition can reach it. Its deletion is FW4 scope (the

Transitional risks recorded in code/report: the two-pass walk cost
(FW3.4 measures), the interior slice-count reconciliation between the

Additive, nothing invokes it yet (the cutover flip is step 2):
- WalkProductionLeafRenderer + RetailPViewPassExecutor.WalkLeaf: the
walk driver's leaf turns over the SAME executor renderers the packed
path uses today - DrawWalkSky (the per-slice sky block looped under
one driver turn), DrawWalkTerrainSlice (the terrain block of
DrawLandscapeSlice), per-cell shells via EnvCellRenderer,
DrawWalkPunchFan (PortalDepthMaskRenderer far-Z, +ShellDrawLiftZ
matching today's DrawPortalDepthWrite until FW3.3 retires it), the
alpha barrier via FlushLandscapeAlphaFartherThan, and caller-supplied
clear/seal actions (the renderer owns the pass scope). The cutover
changes ORDER, never leaf mechanics.
- Punch fans now carry the ACTIVE VIEW INDEX end to end (retail pins
building_view = Render::portal_view_num @0x0059f3bf for the whole
two-pass walk; the fan clips by that view's slice planes):
PortalPassSink.ActiveViewIndex -> IWalkEventSink.OnPunchGeometry ->

The oracle trace order DI|DC|LS is breakpoint-ENTRY order; retail's
actual DRAW order inside PView::DrawCells @0x005a4840 for an interior
root is LScape::draw FIRST (pc:432719, only when exit views survive),
then the depth clear (pc:432731-432732), the exit-portal seals
(pc:432785-432786), THEN the flood's own cells far-to-near. The
driver drew flood cells before the landscape - inverted.
RetailFrameWalk.DrawInside gains the additive
OnInteriorFloodDrawTurn(cells) hook firing after the conditional
landscape turn; the DC EVENT stays at its original point (conformance
untouched - 40/1 InstalledDat green). WalkFrameDriver records the
interior flood at the DC turn and draws it at the new turn:
flush -> ClearInteriorDepth -> flush -> DrawExitSeals -> per-cell
shell-then-contents. Building look-in floods still draw immediately at
their building turn (retail's reentrant DrawCells with no clear/seal).
Two new leaf members map to IWorldPassScope.ClearInteriorDepth and the
seal-fan machinery at FW3.2b-2. Reconciliation note recorded: the
driver clears unconditionally for interior roots while production
stages the clear on OutsideViewSlices>0 - observably equivalent at
ov=0, awaiting a firmer decomp read of the clear's gate.
